We hope you’re getting as excited as we are for the 2016 Samson Lightning North American Championships at the Rochester Yacht Club August 10-19!
The staff at RYC and the regatta committee are working tirelessly to put together another great event. If you haven’t visited RYC for an event, now’s your chance! It is a fantastic place to sail Lake Ontario and a beautiful on-shore venue. The pool, snack bar, and tennis courts will be open and available throughout the event, so bring the whole family.
RYC will also be offering a Kids Camp Monday, August 15th through Friday, August 19th. Don’t worry if we’re on the water late, they’re covered with Kids Camp!
There will be swimming, sailing, arts and crafts, and a field trip to the Strong Museum of Play!
We’ve got lots of activities planned including a field trip to Seabreeze Amusement Park Friday, August 12th for the Juniors and a food truck party Monday, August 15th–and let’s not forget about the daily free beer provided by Saranac Beer!
There are a variety of hotels nearby and houses for rent or rooms available with RYC members. On-site camping is also available for the Juniors or bring your motorhome and park!
